He's stamped. Can't take it away from him...

This isnt the best guard season I've ever seen, though. 2016 Steph, even with a disappointing ending, was better than '25 Shai. Not to mention a few Harden, Kobe, Wade seasons...

I'll be interested in seeing how his career progresses from here!

16 Steph if we only countin the regular season sure. Includin postseason? Nah... He missed games (and Warriors did great those games) and was mid most those playoffs. It could even be argued Draymond was Warriors most valuable playoff performer in 2016 he could actually score and shoot back then combine with his impact from everythin else he do and the DPOY level defense. Draymond and Klay led em to the series win over Harden and Dwight basically without Steph. Same issue wit Harden when ya brin up postseason. I agree on Kobe and Wade though.

What’s interesting, if you do an age-by-age comparison… 24, 25, 26 years old… Shai is better than Wade, Curry, and Harden were at the same age range, in both stats and individual accolades.

Now how well he continues from 27-30 (the age range the aforementioned three peaked) will be interesting, but it’d be tough to imagine anything but a freak injury preventing him from sustaining his baseline 30/6/5 output for the remainder of his 20s.

Guy has unbelievable pace. Nothing speeds him up or slows him down. He has a counter move for everything and fantastic footwork. SGA has mastered the fundamentals. Really fun and well rounded player.

Not gonna do the whole comparison thing, just enjoying watching him ball out every night.
Aint kobe his all time favorite player?
